Packing checked baggage

We strongly recommend for all baggage to be clearly marked with the passenger’s name and phone number.

All baggage must be packed in such a way that it can withstand normal baggage handling. This means that the item will withstand the impact of coming into contact with other luggage in the baggage system and when loading/unloading the aircraft.

Each passenger is solely responsible for packing their luggage in such a way that the contents cannot be damaged. To the fullest extent permitted under the Montreal Convention, the passenger is liable for any damaged caused to the Carrier due to their baggage, should for example, a bottle containing liquid in their checked in luggage break. Read more about baggage protection.

Certain items are not accepted for carriage in checked baggage. Read more about restricted items.

Travelling to/from the US – TSA lockIf you wish to lock your baggage when travelling to/from the US, you must use a lock that is approved by US authorities or a TSA lock. We will not cover any damage caused to your baggage if it is forced open during random screening in the US if the baggage is not deemed to have been in the charge of Norwegian.
